		- Home page URL http to https
		- Added repo and Wikipedia links
		- Removed md5sum and sha1sum checks,
		  added sha256sum check
		- Removed one of the notes about Slackware 9.0
		- Run logname instead of using $USER, which requires
		  running su with -p, and your su even having a -p...
		- Fixed various typos from THIRTEEN YEARS AGO (!!)
2011-07-17	- 4.1.5 -> 4.2.1
		- Updated Slackware note for 12.1, 12.2, 13.0, 13.1 and

		- Added missing mode to mkdir (mkdir -p -m ___ src)
		- Replaced the blurb that cleans up the bin package file
		  with a note about what to do.  That was for versions
		  of Slackware less than 9.0, since 9.0 has been 9.1, 10.0,
		  10.1, and 10.2...  I'll remove the note eventually too.

		  sed

Sep 9, 2003	- Removed non-existant sha1sum file verification and
		  replaced it with a md5sum that I got from the sed 4.0.7
		  that I just downloaded that matches up with several sed
		  4.0.7's that I downloaded April 15th.  Unfortunately
		  ftp.gnu.org doesn't have any sed 4.x versions listed in
		  their before-2003-08-01.md5sums.asc file

		- Added prerequisites

		  instead

		  package for it

		- Now we put the sed binary in /bin, create a symlink to
		  it in /usr/bin
		- Added 'strip /bin/sed' (one of mine went from 272k to 76k)
		- Added notes about removing a Slackware installed sed with
		  removepkg, which uses sed...
Mar 19, 2003	- 4.0.5 -> 4.0.6
